Comics New X-Men: Academy X

[usagicassidy]

Gotcha.

 

[Mogwai]

love the new NXM cover

 

[Kevin]

So I read issue 38. You know what I like about some comics? That the pictures move. Like, You actually forget you're reading something and not watching it? I love watching cartoons, and this is what it was like. Reading issue 38 was like watching a cartoon, because the pictures actually moved for me. I liked it. I like David, but I said this maybe a year ago, I became numb to character deaths in this book, so if he's dead, I'll deal.

X-Men #202 - I guess David is alive after all... so is Cassie, Dust, Hellion, Laura, Santo and Surge.

except we dont know exactly where in continuity it all fits, at least not till its released

 

[Kevin]

And again, this cover could've been drawn a while ago.

 

[usagicassidy]

But probably not TOO long ago, because it's Ramos' art.

 

[usagicassidy]

Plus it says '07, and I'm sure at that point the stories had all been planned out.

 

[Kevin]

Then I have no idea.

 

[Havok83]

Maybe he just doesnt like Santo's new look. How many times does Beast's look change from artist to artist?

 

[Mogwai]

maybe it was just someone not paying attention to details..

 

[anyjus]

Is that Omega Sentinel pointing her guns at the team?

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I think option B is more likely

 

[Hotaru]

Is that Omega Sentinel pointing her guns at the team?

Aye. And if you look further, among the Marauders you will find Gambit, Sunfire and Lady Mastermind, so Karima's not the only one on the other side of the barricade... :P

 

[Specter313]

Pages from #39:

 

[Havok83]

Good pics. Anyone else not liking X-23 in a skirt?

 

[Mogwai]

wow.. those pages look great.

 

[Kevin]

That's how X is supposed to look, right? It looks weird of her, but I can deal.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, she looks more like her AOA self now. That seems to be common in the 616 universe these days.

 

[Valechan]

What's N'astirh doing there??? My Goddess killed him a long time ago...

 

[usagicassidy]

This looks fantastic! And did anyone see the preview from X-Men 200/Endangered Species One shot (not sure which it's from)?

Nice to have a little Dani moment there. Now I assume it's just showing how mutants lost their powers, because of the other two panels, but hopefully it'll be foreshadowing a return in the future? Perhaps sometime during Endangered Species?

 

[OutcryX]

ok, the art does look good. i like that team roster looking pic, have no clue as to who anyne is though. but the Apocalypse looking kid intrigues me

 

[Snikt 6]

LOVE that art, man that stuff is so smooth. I kinda like the X-23 in a skirt, gotta be hard being feminine with claws and stuff.

 

[OutcryX]

so who is the Apocalypse looking kid? a good guy? hope he sticks around..all of them actually...except the fire kid, too many fire people already. but knowing these writers, they'll all die horribly before the end of the arc

His name is Nezhno, who's codename is, (get this) "Gentle". And if you think fire people is an overused powers, this guy's power has only been listed as "extreme strength". I swear, if the writers aren't apeing off of some other storyline, they don't have a creative bone in their body.

a super strong guy named Gentle? dont we already have Collossus? and with such a cool looking character...they could have given hime something other than, or at least in addition to, super strength
